    You are an inspiration!. A good friend of mine had a story similar to yours but he opted for gastric bypass and had complications post surgery. It almost killed him. Many times he has said he wished he had done it differently- gotten a nutritionist worked with a trainer etc and do it exactly the way you did it. Today he is not as heavy as he was initially was but has gained back most of the weight that he lost -even with the bypass.I also wory what the long term effects of the gastric bypass are going to be. Doing it the way you did shows that it can be done. Congratulations to you and best of luck.
